YM778.TV Chapter 899 Daniel Was Gone
"What? Are you about to end me too? If that\'s what you\'re going to do, just get it over with already. Unlike Richardo, I already saw this coming." Marcel glared at him with blazing intensity. He was not going to show an ounce of fear, Daniel derived joy from it. He refuses to give him the satisfaction.
But to his surprise, Daniel burst into laughter instead. He laughed so hard that tears slipped from his eyes and was unable to explain his mirth, stopping only when his stomach began to hurt.
"Really?" He gave Marcel a long look, his gaze branding him as stupid, "You think that I would kill my own son? Even my brother died in the hands of my uncle, not fallen by my own weapon. Do give me a little credit, Marcel."
"As if," Marcel growled, unable to believe it. His father was evil, a monster. There was no way he was sparing him, not after what he did to him.
"Then what is all of this? You were in cahoots with Richardo!" There was no way this was all a ruse, he couldn\'t believe it.
"I believe you meant to say, thank your ungrateful ass for helping me get rid of Richardo. And did I forget to mention, saving you from the claws of death as well? You\'re welcome." Daniel said with deep sarcasm, his eyes flashing with annoyance. To think he had hoped Marcel would kiss his feet when this was over. Okay, maybe that was exaggerated a little.
"Oh please, spare me that!" Marcel dragged himself up, not minding the pain that shot up his calf or his sides and supporting all of his weight on his uninjured feet.
He said to his father, "Richardo wouldn\'t have found me if my most trusted soldier…" He pointed at Luca, "was not working for you. He abducted me,"
"Stop being such a sore loser and just admit that I\'m the reason you\'re standing here. While you allied and dallied with your commission friends, Richardo grew stronger and do you even know what he had in plans for you? For our family all thanks to your carelessness!"
Daniel hissed, "If it wasn\'t for me, you wouldn\'t have an organization to rule! Richardo planned to destroy everything in his path just to get to you, I gave him a wiser and more creative idea and thanks to that, everyone in the family is safe." He snorted, "Also, why do you think I never wanted anything to do with the commission? Their rules and decorum would bring you nothing but regrets. We are not puppies under their control, Marcel, but wolves that scavenge and there are no rules to survival!"
He looked at Luca, "At least, your second in command had the foresight to do something that you couldn\'t do."
Marcel and Lucas\'s gaze connected and he quickly explained to him, "I know what you\'re thinking, but that\'s not it. The truth is that I caught Daniel\'s mole and he communicated the plans to me. I knew it was risky but it was better than going to a war that would spill more blood and probably expose us to the authorities. So I took the risk and brought you to Daniel myself. I knew there was a chance of this being a trap, but I already had other plans and would never let you come to harm."
While Marcel felt the sincerity in his words, he still couldn\'t trust him entirely, not after what he did. He said,
"You stood there while Richardo pointed a gun to my head, what was your plan then?"
"I emptied the chamber myself. It was never going to happen. I had to make sure that we were in the same league." He tipped his head in the direction of Konstantine\'s second-in-command, who merely shrugged in response.
"No!" Marcel shouted, "You could have told me! Didn\'t you trust me or what?!"
"Richardo can\'t suspect a thing. We needed everything to be real. It was a perilous situation." Luca said and Daniel chortled as if taking pleasure from his son\'s misery.
Marcel whirled upon him, eyes blazing, "You!" He called, "You could have killed Richardo before this went any further, but you let Richardo torture me on purpose. He fucking broke my leg," Marcel hissed with the pain even as he spoke.
"Of course," Daniel admitted it without shame to his shock, "I could have killed Richardo before he laid a hand on you, but then, you took my authority in the family, I needed you to feel my pain. Broken pains heal, but not my reputation."
Marcel\'s jaw fell open in disbelief. How could he admit that?
He muttered," You\'re a psychopath, "
"I can\'t believe you just realized that today," Daniel didn\'t even take his word to heart.
Almost immediately, Konstantine\'s second in command came to him and said, "We have to move now. They are already here."
"Where are you going?" Marcel frowned when he heard that.
"Away from your men who think they are about to play the hero when I saved your ass or perhaps…." Daniel stopped momentarily only for a dark grin to appear, "They are here to take your body." He hinted his men must assume he was dead.
Marcel shut his eyes and drew a deep breath. Daniel was simply a lost cause and to think that he had wanted to ask him to stay.
"You still have a chance." He told him though, "It\'s not going to be easy but you can change for the better. Restitute for the things that you have done."
"What a great idea, Marcel. But no, a leopard can\'t change its spot." Daniel told him finally, "Goodbye Marcel. From now on, it\'s you alone. I would love to see how that turns out to be. Good luck."
Marcel didn\'t stop him. It was for the best anyway. Daniel was right, a leopard can never change its skin. But strange enough, Marcel felt a hollow feeling in his chest as he watched Daniel\'s shadows till he disappeared entirely.
"We should go too." Luca threw his arm around his shoulder and let Marcel rest his entire weight on him.
But Marcel peered over his shoulder, Daniel was gone.
